ok - so mvn archetype:generate uses the newer version of the plugin if run
in an empty directory.
If run in a directory where there is a pom with plugin setting for 2.4 and
it will honor that.
So the issue with the missing catalog file and it not working has to do
with the version you are running with and the version you are installing with,
and if you are under a pom structure that keeps them the same.
I don't know how that helps, but it solves that mystery.
